: :dead battery, starter solenoid making noise, dead battery is probably from bad altanater, voltage regular or both, or you may have a small short in your electrical system draining battery good slowly,
Very common in older cars due to wiring, connectors getting old.
The Ford Lords frowned on me. My f**king maverick broke down on me WHILE I was taking my date to homecoming and now it wont start, we had to walk to the dance. anyhow my question is, what would make a fast clicking noise under the hood of a 70 200 I-6. It sounds exactly like when a machine gun on TV runs out of ammunition. It make's that noise instead of turning over.

: Sounds like your starter solenoid. Possible low battery - not enough juice to turn the car over.
